[Desktop] Bring back Lyrics

[poetaccio]

Allow me to re-edit again, in premise, that thanks to all of you this idea keeps receiving votes, and I am grateful to each of you, and when I expressed this desire as an idea I was a newbie, I owe to the professionality of Marco and Toku, whom I thank again, that I became aware that this idea it’s by no means new, nor even mine but Spotify’s, yet it is properly expressed, and it is shared by enough Community members for it to be still alive, and I agree with Arcanscape that, "We really need the lyrics feature", and I just notice an excellent temporary alternative of “SpotifyLyrics” kindly programmed and provided by Mirth (fr31): https://github.com/fr31/spotifylyrics/releases (via scoobyTdog), it works very well on my Pc 🙂 and I invite you all to try it.

Whilst singing might be fun, I have another approach to lyrics and sound, which is of course not mutually exclusive, and I read the words to see if I like them as I enjoy the melody, if I see myself in the lyrics, if I share the values expressed, and this is easier by having the words at hand.

So please Spotify bring back the Lyrics Feature most elegantly -- as you did with restyling the Community -- when you find a better Lyrics Provider.

Reading and listening might be even better than karaoke, although not as fun 😉

and every member could always do both, even just singing, as a very close person in my family does, and many other people do.

Thank you for evaluating, with my warmest and most sincere Regards.

Marco, a poet at heart

Could you add lyrics to the spotify?

An option to have  to enable or disable lyrics for each song.

Thanks

(I'm posting here even though I'm concerned about the Android app, because the other thread on lyrics was closed.)

Still no update on this? The "Behind the Lyrics" features provided by Genius is nice to have, but please, who asked for this? This is not what I want when I'm looking for lyrics. Since competitors are able to simply show plain lyrics, why is this such a big deal for Spotify?

It's pretty annoying to have a lyrics feature that doesn't let you simply choose to see the lyrics. There really ought to be an option to disable the Behind The Lyrics part of it.

Please, please, show all the lyrics at once! You could put interesting facts somewhere else! The feature doesn’t have to be fancy, but it’s really needed. 

Especially when you switch from another app. If other things arise, it is likely to be of the major reason I would switch back, I guess.

Please help so that my Spotify can display the song lyrics because I really need that.**bleep**

Look at the last updated comment from them in 2019. If they were interested in this, it would be there by now. We had it . It was taken away and promised to return but hasn't in YEARS. That's why I left almost a year ago. Still have an account, but not a paying one.

Just got a congratulatory email for being here for two years. Big WHOOPIE !!

STILL NO LYRICS !!

[Crikker]

I can only agree what has been written by many others before me. Bring back the full lyrics function! Please listen to your customers and make it a happy place 🙏

[jennagk7]

Could you make it where you can see the lyrics?

WTH another feature that I have to vote to include that people have been wanting for almost 5 years. Ughhh, what have you guys been working on all this time? Please add this. For those wondering, here is the other desired feature...
